Re: [Mono-dev] 2.6 preview 1
Is the Mono for Windows installer bigger now because it includes the mono.dll and mono static libraries like libmono.a which non-embedders do not need? I think maybe there should be two installers for mono on windows. 1. Normal. (Mono/Gtk+/Gtk# Runtime and Compilers and Tools). 2. Embedded. This would require the first installer. The embedded can include the extra mono.dll and libmono.a and other libraries needed for embedding mono. This would also be the version you would need to build mono or gtk# from source. This will make the Normal installer smaller. --- On Wed, 9/30/09, Andrew Jorgensen ajorgen...@novell.com wrote: From: Andrew Jorgensen ajorgen...@novell.com Subject: [Mono-dev] 2.6 preview 1 To: mono-packagers-l...@lists.ximian.com Cc: mono-devel mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com Date: Wednesday, September 30, 2009, 10:30 PM The first preview build of 2.6 has been published to http://mono.ximian.com/monobuild/preview/download-preview/ The windows installer in this build is known to contain a number of problems, including but not limited to: * Has an older build (2.4.x) of gluezilla * Does not contain mono-tools (monodoc browser, gsharp, gendarme, etc.) or gnome-sharp * Is larger than it was previously despite missing mono-tools, etc. We are working through these problems but felt that it was more important to get the build (and the preview tarballs) out into your hands.

Mono.dll is required by the Windows build, so it cannot be omitted. Libmono.a is of no use under Windows and it should not be distributed anyway. Mono.lib (I believe it's still not distributed) would be just a tiny import library.

Re: [Mono-dev] 2.6 preview 1
Hey Alan, I understand. I've been through the algorithm and it's very sound. It screams on Microsoft .net, runs nicely (but a little slower) on Mono runtime and Linux. Bogs down like crazy on Mono + Mac. I have a sneaky suspicion it's the way the calling thread is waiting for the worker threads to finish (WaitHandle.WaitAll(...)). Maybe Mono's Mac implementation of this is very inefficient? -L I'm going to prepare a compact test case that illustrates the behavior.

The experience was very enlightening, and as I haven't been able to find anything of substance out there about working with Mono.Simd, I thought I'd write some articles about it. I'm posting my experience to my blog in a 5-part series.
